CF-10 is The Cairhienen Corporation's (CC) first fully military plane after the dearmament. It is also CC's first ever military jet. It is in essence a reverse engineered F-4E Phantom II, though is slightly worse by all accounts.

Variants

The CF-10B was introduced after the production run was ended in an attempt to bring the CF-10 back into the modern age. Major improvements include more powerful super cruising engines and a conformal fuselage tank to greatly increase range with minimal performance impact.
